So basically I was as continentally-USA off as I could get. Thanks 🙏🏻

Sounds like a plan 👍🏻

says the man featured in every shot! cheers my dude

i don't know friend

i dont' get it lol

@@KyleMcCueRunningyour name is Kyle McQue. Like the letter Q instead of the letter P. Twas a terrible joke. 😭

love that

i totally hear ya! tried it and couldn't get passed how solid it was - like the texture was so unexpected.

i always go true to size with both running and casual shoes. but often people do order a 1/2 size up for distance running because your feet swell after pounding on them for a bunch of miles.

Glad you clicked! Don’t worry, I got pretty wrecked from this workout but I’ve been grinding away at this running thing for years. So for sure a process 🤘🏻

Love that - onward and upward 🤘🏻

Thank you so much for watching 🙏🏻. Based on elevation maps if you have a good time in Montreal you will def rock Buffalo next year 🤘🏻.

Thanks!! And also thanks! I love it, got it on our last trip up. Freakin love that city

I’ll have to look it up! Currently considering Corning or Philly. Philly sounds nice cuz it’s later. Mid November.

haha, a "voluntary" nightmare for sure. appreciate the kind words! I'll get the next one.

Really appreciate the comment, it’s been very bittersweet but have had it in my head that the long term goal is to stack a couple training blocks and just keep racing. Gotta have a great day eventually haha.

Thanks! Rough day for sure haha, currently looking back at November races. Better chance of snow than heat lol

Still ran an awesome time man, can chalk it up to a really great workout. You already looking at fall races too?

@@KyleMcCueRunning thanks! I am currently training for The Wineglass Marathon in Corning ny. I highly recommend it if you're interested

Ayyy! Sounds like we had very similar days. 100% we are both gonna get 3:30 eventually

Dude Ben! Thanks for the comment man! Yeah, this was a wild ride with a lot of positives. Already itching to get back to it. time for a summer of hot miles!!!

Hey man! I'm curious if you run in warming temps? (I'm wondering if they felt less cushy for me because I was running through the winter - generally like 15-30 degrees F). But I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts here. Everyone truly has a different experience. Also, sorry about the ankle, that stinks! I feel ya, they are great work shoes. I'm back and forth now between these and the novablast 25's as my "everyday work" shoe.

@@KyleMcCueRunning definitely softer in hot temps (like most EVA foams) but even too soft for me during the early winter when I bought these shoes.

Some folks have had issues with how soft they are (I didn’t) but you may want to look at other options.

appreciate the comment and hope others found it useful!

Yooo! If you see me say hi! I keep checking the weather and thinking the sun will take a bit off my pace. Looking Forward to exploring the pain cave a bit 🤘🏻

Really appreciate the comment and insight of your experience so far. Let me know how you get on with it 👍🏻

@@KyleMcCueRunning Well, unfortunately the pendulum quickly swung back into negative territory on the softer gap-heel, for me. Some unpleasant, and unfamiliar achilles irritation. In fairness to NB, I was getting a surprising level of "stability" satisfaction out of the firmer v3. The targeted neutral squish-lover, really isn't me. Bummed, because I don't know what might work next. Possibly 'Kayano 30' , but gotta hate the expensive trials that often fail.

So I have actually worn these casually with the low arch running superfeet insert and think they feel fine. Could be a bit tight but the upper is pretty stretchy in the forefoot so overall I think you could get away with it.

Warms my heart 🤘🏻

Love to see it! Give the people what they want haha 🤘🏻

Thank you so much 🙏🏻

Very much appreciate the sub and the feedback! I’ll be better about the music mixing 🤘🏻

I feel your pain on that. I got lucky on some v3 4Es, due to perfect timing at a brick & mortar place, but I would have done better in a slightly longer length if THAT had also been available. I had one salesperson tell me he didn't think the v4 was available in 4E, at all. If something is on the scarce side, tougher to find a good bargain.

Bummer, I’m sure it’s an inventory decision but I hope more wide shoes start going on sale for ya

Heck yeah man! Thanks for got comment! I’ll do my best to keep the videos coming 🤘🏻

hmmm, that's a tough one. I'd say if you can find the nimbus 25's on sale it might be worth it to have a second pair to rotate. If anything it will make your Novablasts last a lot longer. You might also want to look for a pair of novablast 3's on sale in your size (if you can find them). They were such an awesome shoe and might not break the bank as much. Sorry to hear about your back, take it easy and one mile at a time.

Thanks for the reply! I have the NB4 and love them so far, going to stick with them. One mile at a time!

​@@LostBoy88 it's always worth rotating so you allow the foam time to recover between runs.

Enjoy the miles! I ran in the nimbus 25 and the novablast 3 so totally get enjoying ASICS (maybe you will be a slight saucony convert now haha)

I loved the NB more v4’s! Definitely curious about more NB shoes. I’d say find a running store and try on the endorphin’s when you get a chance, it just hits the sweet spot of light and fast but cushioned and soft. Wild haha

I’m jelly! I skipped the 3’s and wish I hadn’t, I think I would have liked the softer ride. I do highly recommend the 4’s once you run the 3’s into the ground haha 🤘🏻

Definitely, if you want to try a carbon plated shoe you could try the new endorphin pro 4’s as well. But I’m about the same weight and going for 3h25min marathon and am considering these as a race day shoe.

@@KyleMcCueRunningI wore the 3s in my Copenhagen marathon, weighing 80KG and came in at 3:11, absolutely no issues with my feet or legs. So I think they are great option for a race shoe!

@@craig709 heck yeah, there you go!

But of a narrow fit but gives a serious lockdown 🤘🏻. Really enjoying it so far. And thanks man! My miles are flowing!

yeah so i didn't notice any issues on the softer surface so I think you are good to stay in the carbon plate shoes. although if you are going quite a bit faster than me I'm guessing you might notice not quite getting the "pop" that you normally would on pavement.

I guess that’s why they say you gotta “make” time for it 😆 - idk, just doing what I can ✌🏻

Hey thanks! Definitely will do!

That’s awesome! Enjoy the miles 🤘🏻

Personally didn’t love maurtens, the jello texture and flavor just wasn’t enjoyable for me. BPN GoGels had a great consistency but the apple cinnamon one I tried was like almost “spicy” (so that scared me away). I also drink LMNT, but i literally sip on one packet over 4-5 days. I just don’t feel like I need that much sodium. I like nuun tablets, less aggressive tasting than LMNT. And I totally hear ya on ordering in bulk online is a risk. I’m working through a Caf box of Unived gels that I don’t “love” but it’s mainly flavor. Next time I’ll try and new one.

@@KyleMcCueRunning I HATED Maurten at first because I was not expecting the jello like consistency, but not I know its there I don't mind it...didn't really have a flavor. I agree on the BPN....curious about the new mixed berry flavor they are working on. I'll have to give Nuun a shot. I know I can pick up a tube locally. Also hear a ton of people talk about Tailwind, but never tried it.

Wise wise words 🫡

I think that will be very doable, I just got the invincible 3’s for $97 at dicks and those retailed at $180. As new versions come out the sales are hot haha.

My 800 repeats is based on my “goal half marathon pace.” So I’m doing repeats timed at 3:30’s because my goal pace is 7min/mile. I do not recommend doing 8x800’s all out, which is what I think you are saying.
